To  the  Public. 

It  is  with  pleasure  mixed  with  regret  that  I offer  at  Public  Auc- 


tion the  collection  of  Dr.  Chas.  A.  Graeber  of  Meriden,  Conn.,  em- 
bracing' as  it  does  the  result  of  over  forty  3rears  of  persistent  collection 
and  study.  Pleasure;  because  I am  certain  that  there  is  not  a coin  cata- 
logued but  that  will  appeal  to  anyone  possessing  the  true  numisma- 
tic spirit.  Regret;  that  the  necessity  of  “putting  one’s  house  in  order” 
should  compel  Dr.  Graeber  to  part  with  the  collection,  each  and  every 
coin  of  which  has  had  his  personal  attention  and  loving  care.  But 
“Tempos  fugit  et  nos  fugimur”  and  so  again  I say  I regret  its  dispersal 
yet  take  pleasure  in  presenting  it  for  your  approval  and  purchase.  It 
is  possible  also  that  at  some  future  sale  I may  have  the  felicity  of  offer- 
ing either  in  America  or  Europe,  the  superb  collection  of  gold  and  silver 
medals  belonging  to  Dr.  Graeber  which  he  for  the  present  retains,  pen- 
ding some  historical  notes,  he  is  desirous  of  making.  Particular  atten- 
tion is  called  to  the  numbers  directly  following  each  lot,  which  indicates 
the  exact  size  of  each  coin,  thereby  assisting  the  bidder  in  making  his 
offer  and  in  each  envelope  will  be  found  an  autograph  description  to- 
gether with  various  historical  n >tes,  very  interesting  and  instructive. 
I have  included  in  the  present  sale,  some  choice  pieces  from  other  cabin- 
ets, to  which  I call  special  attention. 

Thanking  you  for  your  patronage  in  the  past,  and  bespeaking  a con- 
tinuance of  the  same,  I have  the  honor  to  be
